MCQ
If a body is charged by rubbing it, its weight:
- AAlways decreases slightly.
- BAlways increases slightly.
- ✓May increase slightly or may decrease slightly.
- DRemains precisely the same.
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
May increase slightly or may decrease slightly.
If a body is charged by rubbing it, then it may lose or gain electrons. Since electrons have a mass of ( $\left.9.1 \times 10^{-31} kg\right)$. So, a slight weight may increase or decrease slightly.
